Your Ni Dom

An ENTJ, INTJ, HSP Reflection

In this reflection I talk about a conversation I had with an ENTJ and an INTJ-HSP. I consider Fe and Fi's ability to empathize (versus sympathize) Finally I talk about the intensity of having Ni-Fi combined.

Inequities in Education and the Activation of Fi

In this reflection I talk about my work as an educator and as a change agent. As the name suggests, I talk about inequities in education for marginalized communities and about the ways these inequities activate (inflame?) my introverted feelings (Fi). #Enneagram8 #Enneagram1 #Enneagram5 #BiVocational #Employment #Entrepreneurship #CriticalPedagogy #SocialChange

Connecting to Sensors

In this reflection I talk about the ways I enjoy and am turned off by sensors. I also give an update on my colleague I have named the INTJ agitator (and the ways she comes across as Si). Finally, I talk about two romantic relationships I have had (one Si and the other Se) and the poem I wrote when I compared/contrasted them to each other. Note: the poem will be posted on my website: www.yournidom.wordpress.com.

Competition and Ending My Day with You

It's in a Joke

This reflection ends with a conversation about comedy. I explore the construct of a joke and the nature of "funny". To get to this consideration, I also explore concepts such as the cognitive functions of Tiktok,the social matrix, sexism, personal growth, sexual energy and intellectual challenges.

It's in a Song

In this reflection I talk about the emotional world of an INTJ. I also talk about taking care of the feeling function when it is in the back seat. Finally I talk about the emotional strain of being black during a pandemic. #Death #BLM #Grief #Covid19

Stopping My Ni from Running Amok

This is the last installment on my NiTe friction reflection. I talk about the relationship my dominant Ni has with the other three functions in my stack. I also talk about the extended growth work of my auxiliary Te. Finally, I talk about my Ni's relationship to the matrix and the work my Te has to do to maintain order/direction.

Coming Out as an Ni Dom

In this reflection I talk about my hidden struggle as an Ni-dom person and the pros and cons of coming out. I also talk about a concept called looping and my continued work with extroverted thinking. Finally I talk about my relationship to money as relating to my two judging functions: Te and Fi.

Cognitive Functions

In this reflection I talk about cognitive functions (as captured by Meyers Briggs) and their relationship to my personality. I also talk about the relationship those functions have with my social wiring (as best captured by the Ennragram system). Finally, I explore my love hate relationship to my sixth function-- introverted thinking (Ti). [Some additional discussion points were intuition and creativity; personality, politics and power; and language and standard English.]

Social Change, Self Preservation and Building a Better Self

In this reflection I talk about living a life of social change agentry and pursuing a better self. [Note: I also talk about the instinctual stack in the Enneagram system, what it means to be physically stable and personality typing.]
